Trump banners on federal buildings spark debate over $50K in taxpayer-funded political displays.
Large banners featuring Donald Trump’s image on federal buildings have sparked bipartisan debate over the use of taxpayer funds for presidential imagery.
Democrats, citing a report by Senator Adam Schiff, criticized the displays as politically motivated and authoritarian, noting at least $50,000 was spent—$16,400 by Agriculture, $33,726 by Health and Human Services, and $6,000 by Labor—primarily for Labor Day and America250 celebrations.
The Labor Department said banners were extended due to public support with no extra cost.
Republicans questioned the consistency of Democratic criticism, pointing to similar promotions under Biden.
The White House dismissed the report as baseless and accused Schiff of inflaming division.
Ethics advocates and lawmakers from both parties are urging stronger congressional oversight to ensure nonpartisan accountability in federal spending on political messaging.
